La Dame Blanche

Singer and multi-instrumentalist La Dame Blanche adds hip-hop, a bit of cumbia and a sprinkle of afrobeats into a pot and mixes it all up. Releasing through Swedish label Wakan Tanka, La Dame Blanche’s sound is original and totally inspired by her Cuban roots.

Check out ‘Kikiriki’ from last year’s La Dame Blanche 2 album (available from Bandcamp here).

"Based on the kids in the street who swarm them, Los Aldeanos are beloved. "They speak the truth," explains one young fan. But the state police in uniform or hiding in plain clothes constantly let them know they are playing with fire, something that also concerns the rappers' families. It seems that Cuban dissenters have been disappeared for far less."

Las Krudas is a Cuban hip hop duo, an interracial couple of HOT, HOT, HOT lesbians Odaymara Cuesta and Olivia Prendes.  Their feminist lyrics and performance battle machismo and celebrate the power and beauty of women of color.

In "Vamo' a vencer la dificultad," the track that opens their CD Cubensi, Las Krudas repeat:

Sexo femenino, siempre relegado pero las Krudas el molde han quebrado vamo' a vencer la dificultad. . . . Women, always the second class But Las Krudas have broken the mold Let's vanquish the obstruction. . . .
